Binding: Audio CDEAN: 0724384063924 Format: Import Label: Virgin France Manufacturer: Virgin France Number Of Discs: 1 Publisher: Virgin France Release Date: September 29, 1995 Studio: Virgin France Editorial Review: Album Description: Import only CD version of the French-pop superstar's 1972 album.

Every track comes across with an earthiness that was less prevalent on her earlier, more orchestrated work. "Pardon," an apology to friends for being preoccupied while dreaming ...

"Et si je m'en..." is a real little gem, her traditional melancholy soaking in a very relaxed country vibe. The songs are pretty, the arrangements simple and beautifully articulated, and the overall feel is that of an artist inviting you to enjoy the luxuriant intimacy of her music. It's hard to pick standout tracks as the album flows so well, but "Pardon", "Cafard" ...
